For My Mum, that's Why

Its 'pretty' - so you automatically know its not for me. :o) But I do like how it turned out. Hope she likes it too. It's a memo board (you slip your photos under the ribbons)

Designed this class to be something that people could make to give to their mum's on Mother's Day, but since I couldn't take this back home till class was over, I can only give this to my mum now - haha. Don't worry, we got her other things on that day.

Some close ups of the butterflies (which was everyone's favourite bit, or so I'm told) (my favourite bit is the rough sandy glitter BEHIND the butterfly - haha):
